Purpose. Intensivist-performed focused echocardiography (FE) is accepted practice. Whether medical residents can perform and interpret quality FE in the critically ill is unknown. Methods. Novice residents trained in an 8-hour module in FE, evaluating ejection fraction (EF), pericardial effusion, right ventricular (RV) strain, valvular pathology, wall motion abnormalities (WMAs), and inferior vena cava collapsibility in…
Undifferentiated hypotension remains a central diagnostic and therapeutic challenge in emergency and critical care medicine. Increasingly, bedside ultrasound conducted by intensivists and emergency medicine providers is assuming a central role in diagnosis and resuscitation of hypotension. This review discusses sample algorithms for the bedside ultrasonographic assessment of undifferentiated shock and outlines an evidence-based framework for…
BACKGROUND: Therapeutic hypothermia (TH) has been established as an effective treatment for preserving neurological function after out of hospital cardiac arrest (CA). Use of TH has been limited in cardiac surgery patients in particular because of concern about adverse effects such as hemorrhage and dysrhythmia. Little published data describe efficacy or safety of TH in…
Objectives. The aim of this study was to evaluate the incidence and significance of elevated serum lactate and its impact on outcome in postoperative neurosurgical patients admitted to neurosurgical intensive care unit (NSICU). Design. This study’s design is a retrospective analysis in a 13-bed NSICU in a tertiary care hospital. A total of 673 patients…
As mortality from critical illness continues to decrease, focus has shifted to long-term outcomes of ICU survivors. Neuromuscular weakness is a common sequela of critical illness. This weakness prolongs duration of mechanical ventilation, increases ICU and hospital length of stay, increases mortality, and can persist for years after hospital discharge. The differential diagnosis of weakness…
